I think that they mean a four year "tech" degree. Because, if you are majoring in history, history cannot change for the most part.

[ALwizzelTV]

@boydman117 And what do you think most degrees are influenced by? Technology.

[nithelmusic]

I've seen it before, but it gets to me every single time. It's scare, it's impressive, it's inspirational, and it's definitely something worth thinking about. I mean, "so what does this all mean?". It makes you worry if it's all going too fast. Sometime it has got to stop, it can't keep going. Everything is finite. I wonder what will happen when we reach the end, if we ever get so far.

[ALwizzelTV]

I couldn't have summed it up in any better way... its crazy.

[DanielaPaulinoTV]

um............................­.............42

Keep your mind open like you are, keeps your soul alive.

[nikes5a5m5]

what does it mean by "to whom were these questions addressed to before google"

[jagn516]

@madpianoplayer1600 ...actually, it would be closer to 6,000...if you are only one in a million...at least that's what MY math says....

[jagn516]

I THINK the "42" is in reference to "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy"...random Brittish humor... as for the video, I watched it before I saw it on your site, but I thought it was something different....and I really think it's not WHAT you learn that will determine your "marketability", but learning HOW to learn...exercise your brain muscle and it will continue getting stronger. As for everything being finite, perhaps he'd never heard about God....or the soul...
